I sometimes agree with some things you say but boy are you way too hot headed. You assume a lot and I expect it has got you in trouble before. If not then I expect it will if you actually speak to anyone in person like that. You assume: I'm not a founder of an electronics design and engineering company My fathers company wasn't the first in the world AFAIK to sell a rugged DC vehicle UPS I didn't transfer 8 batteries from ex rental stock and wire them together into a working AC UPS (to save money). Those other APC UPS that failed didn't have brand new batteries and were just craply designed electronics that would switch off during a battery removal. My cousin had clients that were annoyed because an expensive UPS failed due to a huge surge, who knows, perhaps lightning and they thought paying over a thousand pounds should keep them running no matter what happened. I'm not a troll that has been on this list for far longer than when your quite fitting email address domain first appeared. p.s. My DATA is quite safe. I assure you. -- KISSIS - Keep It Simple So It's Securable
